A Quest to Find an Endangered Sandwich | Eater NY
"I finally found a liverwurst sandwich when I stumbled into Ray’s Deli (452 Hudson Street, near Barrow Street), a timeworn West Village sandwich place that caters to nearby construction workers and even has a hot steam table with meatballs in tomato sauce beside arroz con pollo. The sandwich maker pulled a cylinder of liverwurst from the display case, dared the woman at the counter to try it (she admitted, “Not bad”), and built my sandwich on a roll with lettuce, tomato, raw onions, and mustard ($12), using a lot more liverwurst than my mom had. The meat was smoky, salty, tasted faintly of liver, and had a pleasing, firm squishiness — a pretty adult sandwich that's worthy of a comeback (just don’t forget a breath mint after lunch)." - Robert Sietsema
